Scientists Say New Study Is A ‘Death Blow’ To Global Warming Hysteria

[Geee]

Daily Caller:

A new study out of Germany casts further doubt on the so-called global warming “consensus” by suggesting the atmosphere may be less sensitive to increases in carbon dioxide emissions than most scientists think.

 

A study by scientists at Germany’s Max Planck Institute for Meteorology found that man-made aerosols had a much smaller cooling effect on the atmosphere during the 20th Century than was previously thought. Why is this big news? It means increases in carbon dioxide emissions likely cause less warming than most climate models suggest.

 

What do aerosols have to do with anything? Well, aerosols are created from human activities like burning coal, driving cars or from fires. There are also natural aerosols like clouds and fog. Aerosols tend to reflect solar energy back into space, giving them a cooling effect that somewhat offsets warming from increased CO2 emissions.

 

 

The Max Planck study suggests “that aerosol radiative forcing is less negative and more certain than is commonly believed.” In layman’s terms, aerosols are offsetting less global warming than was previously thought. And if aerosols aren’t causing as much cooling, it must mean carbon dioxide must be causing less warming than climate models predict.

Here's what I don't get (one of the many many many many things), on the one hand I am told by our friends in the climate community that the climate is very very complicated, and people like me need licensed certified smart people to tell me what is happening....then OTOH I'm told with absolute undeniable certainty that one thing CO2 is causing global warming climate change climate disruption.

 

So which is it? Very very complicated, or only one thing driving global warming climate change climate disruption?

I suspect you are correct. Just one more reason for me to be depressed today.
